It seems that you're referencing a graph that I can't see directly. To determine the length of the shortcut from point \( P \) to point \( Q \) (represented as \( \overline{PQ} \)), you would typically measure the distance using the coordinates of those points on the graph.
If the coordinates of points \( P \) and \( Q \) are given as \( P(x_1, y_1) \) and \( Q(x_2, y_2) \), you can use the distance formula to calculate the length of the shortcut:
\[
d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}
\]
1. Substitute the coordinates of \( P \) and \( Q \) into the formula.
2. Calculate the result.
3. Round the answer to the nearest tenth.
If you can provide the coordinates or details from the graph, I can assist you in calculating the length of the shortcut.
